COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Delightful submitted by pk on June 29, 2011, 1:32pm A truly delightful book about believable people from medieval times. It is set a series of vignettes, some more poetry like, some more prose, about the inhabitants of a village. This reading is marvelous with different actors for the characters and they all do very well. It may take a little hard listening for kids to understand the accents, but it's all worth it. With younger kids, we sometimes stopped the CD and explained the relationships between the different characters, which helped them understand and appreciate the humor and emotion of this BOCD.
